there is a 'select all', and a 'delete all' menu option. I do not believe
either of them have a default keybinding at the moment (they used to, but
these things change. ;>)
however:
- if you want to bind 'select all' to ctrl+a; just move your cursor over the
menu option, and then hit the keystrokes you wish to bind to it. (this
should work for most GTK apps, btw).
- the 'delete all' option causes my copy of pan (debian 0.11.3) to crash on
a regular basis. :( usually it manifests as the GUI locking up, but queued
download tasks continuing in the background. (one reason I'm looking
forward to a separate downloader task that the GUI can attach to/detach
from). I'll wait for a new version of pan to be released before I complain
about this, since I know 0.11.3 isn't really current anymore.
YMMV. :)
